Heroes come in various shapes and sizes…some weird political parties
invent heroes to push their strange and twisted policies.
One law for all has been a battle cry of racists for years and years and
some people actually believe their own rhetoric on this issue. Naturally the
law must be their law, which goes without saying.
They even made a hero of someone who had created a myth around his
so-called efforts to beat back the mass attack by devilish Maori and Iwi on his
farm up North.
He was valiant and heroic as he fought to protect himself and his family from
the cowardly and unrelenting onslaught by these part Maori as he attempted to
save the nation, while at the same time supporting ‘One law for all’.
Established in June, 1 Law 4 All has policies of abolishing the Waitangi
Tribunal and removing all race-based seats and positions in central and local
government.
1 Law 4 All, party president Tom Johnson needed a hero, one
he could hold up as a shining example of heroic proportions to help sell their
new political party and its dream of consigning to the rubbish heap, the
Waitangi Tribunal and removing all race-based seats and positions in central
and local government.
And Tom Johnson felt they had found their hero,
One other person agreed with Tom Johnson and that was a long-time friend
of Johnson’s hero controversial author Martin Doutre. He wrote a book,
Ancient Celtic New Zealand, which claimed Maori were not the first to inhabit New Zealand; rather a band of Celts made their
way from Europe to New
Zealand 5000 years ago but were killed off
by Maori.
So who was this hero who had fought the good fight, stood tall in the
name of justice, freedom and liberty.
His name was Allan Titford, a former Northland farmer
Titford, who last month unsuccessfully ran for mayor of the Far North District
Council. And who was on Wednesday sentenced to 24 years jail on 39 charges,
three of them involving sexual violation.
But alas the court was wrong says: ‘An injustice had been done’, Doutre
said.
Doutre had known Titford since 1998 and toured with him in 2009 on the
Treaty 2U road show disputing the validity of Treaty of Waitangi claims.
This from 2008: [TV3]
The Crown
Law Office is reinvestigating a Northland land dispute which looked as though
it was resolved more than a decade ago.
In 1995
farmer Alan Titford was persuaded to accept $3.25 million in compensation for
his farm, which was bought from him and handed back to Maori.
But now he
has returned to the land at Maunganui Bluff to protest.
For the
first time in 22 years, Alan Titford and his family can return to their farm
without the threat of arrest. After a two-hour meeting this morning, police
allowed the Titfords to return to their Aranga Coast
farm.
It was
here 22 years ago where tensions boiled over, and some of the wounds are still
raw.
It began
when the Waitangi Tribunal recommended burial sites on the farm be returned to
local Maori Te Roroa.
The claim
sparked violent and bitter conflict, and the Titford's house burned down in
mysterious circumstances.
In 1995,
the Titfords signed over the farm and moved to Australia.
A
spokesman for Mr Titford says the agreement for the sale of the land was
tampered with, and will be checked by the Crown Law Office.
Today Mr
Titford is a happier man. He says it is the first time his story has been believed.
2013
Titford was on Wednesday sentenced to 24 years jail on 39 charges, three
of them involving sexual violation. Some
hero!
Titford was a poster boy for the party's policies after he fought a
high-profile land battle over his farm at Maunganui Bluff, near Dargaville.
His case was still on the party's website
today, in the form of a blog post by Mike Butler.
Butler likened
Titford's dispute with the Waitangi Tribunal and local iwi as "just like
the Deep South in the United
States, with the white farmer treated like a
pre-civil rights black."
Butler said
Titford was the victim of abuse at the hands of land claimants and that they
had burned his house down. So much for Mr.
Butler’s opinion!
Titford
was found guilty of arson in relation to the incident.
Following that news and the stories from court of Titford's treatment of
his wife, 1 Law 4 All party president Tom Johnson said they would be reviewing
the place of the post on the website.
"We are in the process of revamping the website, completely
unrelated to this.
"I haven't talked to the other members but I imagine that [removing
the content] would be the likelihood.
"As a party we don't condone criminal activity at all." Yeah right
One person who was standing by Titford was long-time friend and
controversial author Martin Doutre.
More than 400 people voted for mayoral candidate Allan Titford to become
top dog of the Far North.
What they probably didn't know is that they were giving their vote to a
convicted rapist, abuser and fraudster who was already in prison.
Name suppression, put in place to protect Titford's victim, also
protected his mayoral aspirations by default.
By the day of the 2013 local government elections, a jury had already
found Titford guilty of 39 charges - including the systematic abuse of his wife
and children.
But that fact was kept secret from voters who likely only knew the
Northland farmer for his high-profile land ownership battle against the Crown
and his official mayoral candidate spiel.
Note these
ironic words from the One Law for All supporter…hero.
"I
know what it is like to deal with corruption and red tape," Titford's
candidate profile read.
"I am
anti corruption at all levels. We all need a system with business experience
and brains to promote growth not dictatorship and decline."
Titford has now been sentenced to 24 years' imprisonment - one of New Zealand's
longest terms for these types of crimes.
His name suppression was in place throughout his trial to protect his
wife, Susan, who he raped and physically abused.
Victims of sexual crime are automatically given name suppression.
Susan waived her right to keep her identity secret at his sentencing on
Thursday, effectively outing him to the community - and to the 414 residents
who gave him their vote.

Titford was well-known up here as a racist, a liar, an all-round nasty and evil man. He bought that Aranga property (for about $100,000) knowing full well that it had an urupa on it and that there was a likely Te Roroa claim. He prevented the Te Roro people from going to their urupa, told lies about their actions against him (I know these people personally and know their side of the story) and manipulated the Crown into paying him over $3 million dollars. He burnt his own house down and blamed Te Roroa. The list goes on and on. I am not a supporter of "lock 'em up and throw away the key" - but there are always exceptions. Titford is one of them.
For the other side of the story with all the documented evidence log onto, www.onenzfoundation.co.nz
There are always two sides to every story, it's just that one has documented evidence held in our Archives and the other does not have any evidence!
ONZF are you saying that he wasn't convicted of Arson, of wife beating, of fraud, etc, do you believe our justice system is so bad that it would let him go free...he had a trial...I've checked your web site.It's sad really!
Doutre butler and ansell all see another conspiracy theory. And support titford. Sickening really
Just read the post.Sickening is right.
Surely this MADMAN isnt still supported??
